Evaporative Cooler Comparisons

Evaporative coolers (or "swamp" coolers) can effectively lower the ambient temperature in a room or area by up to 20 degrees and for less than one-third less than traditional air conditioning systems.  However, a unit's efficiency will greatly depend on the temperature and humidity of the air coming into the cooler itself.  The following chart shows how some of our best-selling portable air coolers measure up in terms of features:
